Soup
Whilst I enjoy a good roast chicken as much as the next guy I sometimes prefer the bits that follow, like the delicious chicken sandwiches for two days in a row on buttery toast, mmmm. After stripping the carcass the bones all go in a bag in the freezer. I grabbed this lot today and chucked in a few rough chopped onions, carrots, celery, salt and pepper and some chilli flakes. Boil that for a few hours then drain. Then add some finely chopped carrots and celery some pearl barley and wait. Bloody delicious! So a fiver for a chicken and almost four meals out of it. Good stuff.
